Reflection and transmission coefficients of nano-metamaterial antennas at microwave frequencies

The hypothesis of this paper is that when metallic nanoparticles are grouped together by suitable field coupling they can behave like larger objects which will resonate at microwave frequencies. This means that sheets of nanomaterials can be designed that are largely transparent at these spectra exc...
